Example and show embodiments of the invention briefly in the accompanying drawings.Wherein:
Fig. 1 and 2 shows the side view of computerised tomograph.
The specific embodiment
Example and show the side view of a computerised tomograph briefly in Fig. 1, it has the stand 2 of circular structure, this stand 2 is placed on the fixed shell 3 of computerised tomograph 1, and can rotate on the direction shown in the arrow a around the rotating shaft 4 perpendicular to the reel of Fig. 1.Fig. 2 shows the opposite side view of computerised tomograph shown in Figure 11 on the direction of the arrow B indication of Fig. 1 briefly.Be not shown specifically the shell 3 of described computerised tomograph 1 in this embodiment.
A plurality of parts on stand 2, have been arranged, in this embodiment, described parts comprise x-ray radiation source 5, are positioned at the radiation detector 6 on these x-ray radiation source 5 opposites and the chiller 7 that is not shown specifically, and this chiller 7 is used to discharge the heat that duration of work produced of the X-ray tube of described x-ray radiation source 5 at computerised tomograph 1.When computerised tomograph was worked, described stand 2 rotated around rotating shaft 4, and wherein, the fan-shaped X-radiation bundle 8 that sends from x-ray radiation source 5 passes test section 9 with different projectional angles, and enters radiation detector 6.Data determination equipment 10 is obtained some test values from the output signal that described radiation detector 6 produces, and is entered in the Control Computer 11 of computerised tomograph 1.Control Computer 11 calculates one thus and is arranged in test section 9 and at the unshowned patient's of Fig. 1 and 2 image.Under the situation of this embodiment, data determination system 10 utilizes electric wire 12 to link to each other with Control Computer 11, and described electric wire for example includes a contact ring system or wireless transmission link in a not shown manner.Described x-ray radiation source 5 is realized by contact ring with being electrically connected in known, unshowned mode of radiation detector 6.
For according to described test value reconstructed image, on the shell 3 of described computerised tomograph 1, installed a kind of known position receptor 13, when stand 2 work, measure the position of described stand 2 by this position receptor, and this information is sent to Control Computer 11 by electric wire 14 with respect to shell 3.
When making computerised tomograph 1, described stand 2 usually can be uneven in the radial and axial generation of rotating shaft 4, makes this stand 2 not rotate with respect to its rotating shaft 4 exactly.Yet the image that bigger imbalance can cause utilizing computerised tomograph 1 to draw produces unintelligible, or causes damaging this computerised tomograph.Therefore on stand 2, arranged weight 15 usually, compensated the imbalance of described stand 2, or it has been reduced within the suitable margin of tolerance at least by this weight.
In order when not arranging weight 15, to determine the imbalance of described stand 2, and find the position of weight 15 thus accurately, in shell 3 integrated a kind of as shown in Figure 1 test receptor 16a and test receptor 16b as shown in Figure 2.When stand 2 rotates around rotating shaft 4, measure imbalance because of stand 2 along radially wobbling that rotating shaft 4 produces by test receptor 16a shown in Figure 1, and this information is transferred to Control Computer 11 through electric wire 17.On the contrary, during stand 2 rotates around rotating shaft 4, measure the axial wobble that the imbalance because of stand 2 produces along rotating shaft 4, and this information is transferred to Control Computer 11 equally by unshowned electric wire among Fig. 1 and 2 by test receptor 16b shown in Figure 2.During stand 2 rotations, shown position receptor 13 is also measured the position of described stand 2 with respect to shell 3 simultaneously, like this, Control Computer 11 can utilize the computer program that is called when measuring with respect to rotating shaft 4 radial and axial uneven to measure the imbalance of described stand 2, and this is similar to the unshowned external balance equipment of Fig. 1 and 2.
According to the imbalance of being measured, Control Computer 11 utilizes another computer program to calculate that must arrange the weight 15 of appropriate mass on stand 2 position in first calculation procedure, so that the imbalance of compensation stand 2, wherein said calculation procedure is similar to the calculating of external balance equipment.In this first calculation procedure, whole stand 2 is to arrange weight 15, that is to say, according to this first calculation procedure also may measure stand 2 as upper/lower positions, promptly this position is taken by parts such as x-ray radiation source 5, radiation detector 6 and chillers 7, thereby does not have the position to can be used for installing weight 15.
In second calculation procedure based on first calculation procedure, by Control Computer 11 utilize computer program and by suitable interpolating method calculate on the stand 2 as upper/lower positions, promptly on these positions, also have the local described weight 15 of placing.That is to say, be to consider promptly to have arranged such as parts such as x-ray radiation source 5, radiation detector 6 and chillers 7 on these positions of described stand 2 as upper/lower positions in this second calculation procedure.
In order to make the technical staff who in Fig. 1 and 2, does not illustrate also can discern those positions that need to place weight 15 on the described stand 2, show these positions by on electric wire 19 and the monitor 18 that Control Computer 11 links to each other a kind of.
When changing such as parts such as x-ray radiation source 5, radiation detector 6 and chillers 7; described stand 2 can produce new imbalance usually; make and to be put into described weight 15 on the another location of stand 2; or use some unshowned other weights in Fig. 1 and 2, or take away a part of weight 15.For this reason, the technical staff can call the aforementioned calculation machine program of Control Computer 11, so that find on stand 2 and must place the position of weight 15, thereby the imbalance that can compensate the stand 2 that produces because of the replacing parts changes, or it is reduced within the predetermined margin of tolerance.
Regulation also in addition under the situation of this embodiment, when computerised tomograph 1 work, is just measured the imbalance of described stand 2 by the unbalanced computer program that is used to measure stand 2.If the imbalance of stand 2 changes in time or exceeds the described margin of tolerance, then automatically get in touch central database 20 by Control Computer 11, under the situation of this embodiment, described data base is by manufacturer's 21 operations of computerised tomograph 1.
